The Number One Taboo Across the Heavens

The protagonist also ate the fruit, but after ten years he's still useless. I don't understand how someone in real life could eat the fruit for only a few days and become just as strong as the protagonist. It makes the protagonist seem like a useless, toxic character. I'm giving up on this story.

I really don't understand why the protagonist keeps chasing after the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual. No matter how many more powerful techniques he later obtains, or even when he creates his own technique, he always tries to integrate it into his own. It feels like he's obsessed and stuck in a rut. His own sect's Purple Cloud Skill is better than the hastily acquired Evil-Repelling Sword Manual in terms of both its concept and its subsequent development!

The idea was good, but the writing was a bit weak, the plot was terrible, and it was just too padded out.

I don't quite understand what you mean by "after severing emotions, are you still yourself?" If not you, then who are you? Severing emotions simply means cutting off the so-called seven emotions and six desires, making oneself more rational and clearer about one's path. Furthermore, cultivation is a continuous process of ascending to higher dimensions.

He took the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual from Lin Pingzhi, who then asked to become his disciple, but the protagonist refused. However, when Liu Jing and Qu Feiyan, whom he had just met, asked him to become disciples, the protagonist, like a devoted admirer, accepted them and taught them – an old trope from years ago.

When I saw it was going to be released, I hesitated. Should I even continue reading? Was it worth it? Mainly, the protagonist is too selfish. In the real world, he's suffering from disaster, especially his father, who has terminal cancer. They won't give him any elixirs?

I almost died laughing. One second they were criticizing Linghu Chong for being friends with Tian Boguang, and the next second they were making Tian Boguang their follower. It's ridiculous! This is such a double standard!

The protagonist seems like a person without any desires. He doesn't care at all about the treasure he got, and even thinks about handing it over. He spends all his time reading the news and seeing how awesome other people are. Doesn't he have any ambition to become extraordinary? In reality, he's just a coward. I don't know what he's afraid of. In the great struggle of the world, there are plenty of people who have obtained great fortune. Why should he be afraid of being targeted?

A single story like "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" can have nearly two hundred chapters—my goodness! Also, a suggestion for authors: when the protagonist is a nobody, don't delve too deeply into the plot or other such topics. To sum it up in one sentence: "None of your business! What can you do about it?!"

The beginning was alright, but the later parts were written too fast. He's only at the Innate Realm, yet he's already dominating the world. There should be at least three worlds involved. The pace of the real world could be slower. He's only been back in the game for a few days, and there are already tons of demon kings. If you don't look closely, you might think the protagonist has become an immortal!
